Impact of Aerosol Shortwave Radiative Heating on Entrainment in the Atmospheric Convective Boundary Layer: A Large-Eddy Simulation Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEntrainment is critical to the development of the atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL), but little is known about how entrainment is impacted by the aerosol radiative effect. An aerosol radiation transfer ...
Spatiotemporal characteristics of lake breezes over Lake Taihu, China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ake Taihu is a shallow lake located in the Yangtze River Delta region in East China. Lake breezes and their interactions with urban heat islands are of great importance to air quality and weather forecasting. In this study, ...
Improving Lake-Breeze Simulation with WRF Nested LES and Lake Model over a Large Shallow Lake
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model is used in large-eddy simulation (LES) mode to investigate a lake-breeze case occurring on 12 June 2012 over the Lake Taihu region of China. Observational data from ...
The Taihu Eddy Flux Network: An Observational Program on Energy, Water, and Greenhouse Gas Fluxes of a Large Freshwater Lake
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: an important component of the climate system. They provide moisture for precipitation, buffer temperature variations, and contribute to regional atmospheric carbon budgets. This article describes an eddy covariance (EC) ...
